Vitamin B3 comes in two forms, niacin (or nicotinic acid) and niacinamide. Niacin functions in the body as a component of several coenzymes that
are involved in many important biochemical reactions, including the metabolism of lipids (fats), which makes it an excellent nutrient for treating
high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. This nutrient also acts as a vasodilator. Since vasodilators widen the blood vessels and increase the blood
flow to the extremities, niacin is used for various circulatory problems. The niacin in this formula is in the inositol hexaniacinate form, which
eliminates the problem of skin flushing that may occur with niacin alone.
